President Donald Trump (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/DonaldTrump) has accused the federal investigators probing his campaign’s alleged ties to Russia (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/russia) of “meddling” in the US midterm elections.
“The 13 Angry Democrats (plus people who worked 8 years for Obama) working on the rigged Russia Witch Hunt, will be MEDDLING with the mid-term elections, especially now that Republicans (stay tough!) are taking the lead in Polls,” Mr Trump tweeted. “There was no Collusion, except by the Democrats!”


The tweet was a reference to special counsel Robert Mueller’s (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/robert-mueller) team, which is investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election and probing allegations that Moscow worked in concert with the Trump team.
Thirteen of the 17 members of Mr Mueller’s team have previously registered as Democrats, according to the Washington Post. Mr Mueller himself is a Republican, who was appointed to his role by a fellow Republican – Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/rod-rosenstein).
Mr Trump has repeatedly called the investigation a “witch hunt,” and called allegations of collusion “fake news”. But Tuesday was the first time he turned the word “meddling” – a term often used to describe Russia’s alleged actions during the US election – against the investigators.

This coud indicate that "I have to focus on Korea (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?522730-Trump-to-Stop-Tweeting-about-Russian-Investigation&p=6635155&viewfull=1#post6635155)" only narrative may have been fakenews, a smart POTUS is easily able to handle multiple things at a time. KJU is not that big a deal, he could be just bluffing about giving up nukes.
